Several yrs back when Ky won the title, I chose for my wife for her office pool. She knows zippo about the teams so I chose for her and had KY winning the tourney. She won $100 and worked in an almost all male office - they were none too happy with her/me!

It appears only 2 of us picked UConn. And none of the 2 are BillyMac.

Same here. After Day 1, she is 14-2 and I'm 12-4. My 10 year old son is 14-2 also.

Me too. And she's perfect in the first 3 today and I picked Tennessee. So 17-2 and 14-5.

The ESPN winner was joet7247, who had a perfect bracket except for 4 games in Round 1.

This person failed to call the AZ/Utah, Maryland/California and Siena/OSU upsets. Also missed the Ten/OkSt non-upset.

Wake was my only one to lose.

But my wife picked Siena (I was impressed with that pick even before the game went into OT and then 2OT) and I didn't and that made the difference in the first round. 24 to 23, I lost. I imagine I'm near the bottom of this pool with 23, but there's still time.

Including play-in game, I am 25-8. Only sweet 16 to go down, similar to many, was WF.

Think anyone's still in the running for the $1M perfect bracket? Cleveland State and Sienna?
